EUROPESLOWBUYER
Poor Demand for Northwest
ern Wheat.
MARKET HERE IS QUIET
Beerbohm' Report of Foreign Wheat
Production and Requirements.
Iocal Fruit Market Badly
Overloaded ButUr Scarce.
A few scattering lots of wheat ara being
twvught up by local firm's, but oo the whols
the market Is quiet. European buyers are
showing but tittle Interest in Pacific Coast
wheat now. and It looks as If they had com
bined against the American sellers. They
will have to come after the wheat event
ually, however, and In the meantime the
holders In this sectloa maintain a firm atti
tude. Things' were quiet at the Board of Trade
yesterday. Wheat buyers and sellers were
apart le In their views. Less firmness was
shown In the oata market. Barley was un
changed from Saturday.
Receipts for the 43 hours ending at 11 A.
M. yesterday were 223 cars wheat, 9 cars
oats. 20 cars barley, 2000 sacks flour and
8$ cars hay.
The range of futures was as follows (f. o.

Beerbohm's weekly crop report estimates
the total production of the United Kingdom
at S.3OO.00O quarters, against T.000.000 quar
ters last year and adds: "In such a esse
we should expect the Imports of foreign
wheat In the coming season to reach a total
of about 2U.5O0.000 quarters, aa compared
with 24.803.000 quarters In the past season."
Of the other European crops, Beerbohm
says:
In France there is still much diversity
of opinion aa to the actual yield, but most
authorities are disposed to take a less pessi
mistic view of the probabilities than was the
case a month ago. although It Is generally
arknowlertged that there Js a considerable
deficit compared with last year-s obviously
abundant crop. Our own estimate, made
some weeks ago. was 3. 000.000 quarters, and
this fairly well represents present Indica
tions Burh a crop would be about 5.000.000
quarters below the normal requirements of
France, but wirh very large reserves of old
wheat carried foraard. It is not expected
that any large quantity of foreign wheat
will be needed.
In Germany the late harvest has been
favored by the weather, and new wheat la
now being freely offered all over the coun
try. There are some authorities In Oermany
who believe that, owing to the exhaustion of
old wheat reserves, a record net Importa
tion of ll.ooo.04K quarters of foreign wheat
will be necessary this season, as compared
with 0. 150.000 quarters last season. The
previous Isrgest Import was 10.400.000 quar
ters In 1905-O. It Is. we believe, a fact,
that the consumption of wheat in Oermany
Is Increasing at a far greater rate per capita
than In iny other country, and it Is quite
probable that our estimate In last week's
review. In which we placed Germany's re
quirements at 9.000.000 quarters, may prove
to be below the mark.
In Hungary the latest, and practically
final estimate of the wheat crop, is 1T.800.
ono quarters, against U.O.'iO.OOO quarters last
year, and 3.-,.50.fOO quarters In lo. .
In Roumanla the weather has favored the
finish of the harvest. New wheat haa moved
freely to the seaboard, but the quality la
not so high aa was expected. 00-pound wheat
being said to preponderate.
In Denmark heavy ralna have eerlously
Interfered with the harvest.
In Italy the new crop Is evidently so
deficient, and the necessity to Import for
eign wheat so great, that there Is an agita
tion In favor of reducing the import duty,
which Is about 12s ad per quarter.
In Spain the wheat crop appears to have
turned out very disappointingly In some
parts of the country, but there are vio pres
ent signs of any serious need of foreign
wheat.
In Russia the weather has favored the
late harvest, and from some districts we
have received rather better reports as to
the yield of the crops. Very pessimistic
reports, however, continue to be received
about Russia's capacity to export wheat this
season, very few expecting the movement
. to equal last year's total "of about 7.500.000
quarters.
FRUIT MARKET IN A BAT WAT.
Front 8treet Overloaded With Pewches and
Prs. for Wblcti There la No Demand.
The peach market has never been In
worse shape this season than It was yes
terday. Receipts were large and there was
a big carry-over stock, but It was the poor
quality of the fruit that caused the trouble.
The bulk of the offerings were Inferior.
There waa no difficulty In selling fanCy
peaches at one and some large Taktma
Rlbertaa brought more, but small, scrubby
stock could hardly be moved at 25c to 30c.
The situation with regard to pears was
Just as bad. The market was full of dead
ripe fruit, for which there was absolutely
no demand, even the hawkers refusing to
touch them at 2c, and, aa a result, a .lot
of pears had to be dumped last night. Good
green shipping stock was worth 60c, but
very little of It waa to be had.
In other lines the market was quiet.
Grapes sold at last week's prices. A car of
grapes Is due from California today. The
few cantaloupes that came In were hard to
work off. Watermelons do not move at all.
HOPS INACTIVE. BCT FIRM.
Buyers rnable to Pick C An More Cheap
Lots. '
There la a pause In the movement In the
local bop market. Dealers- evidently are
unable to secure any ' more 7-cent contracts
and hesitate to raise their bids. There has
been talk of 8-cent offers) and there are
probably 8-cent orders on hand, but they
have not resulted In any buslneae. so far aa
can be learned. Although quiet, the market
has a decidedly firm undertone.
Trade advices received from New York are
to the 'effect that the crop of the state Is
larger than anticipated and may equal that
of last year. The WatervlHe Times says on
this subject:
The harvest of hope Is practically over
about here. . only two or three of the largest
growers being still at 11. It ha been a
remarkably short season, and as Teports come
in of the yield there seems to be a great di
versity in the amount harvested by the dif
ferent growers. Some report more than last
ear. some about the same, while other lea,
down to one-half aa many. It la probable
that the yield will be a little less thsn last
year. but. as to how much varies according
te the different estimates from one-fifth to
one-Third.
The crop kept well In the great majority
of yards, so that a line aampla will be shown
to buyers of state hops. We have heard of
no traneartior.a In the late hops, a price for
them not yet having been established. There
are reports, however, that a few were bought
before they were picked at 12 to 13 cents.
POTATO MARKET ON STEADY BASIS
Good California Demand Expected in Com
ing winter.
The potato market Is slow and steady.
For fancy shipping stock buyers are quot
ing 0c to $1 to growers, while for ordinary
potatoes SOc is offered. This la ideal
weather for the crop and the farmer are
not In a hurry to dig. The supply coming
forward, therefore. Is light.
There Is very little shipping at present.
The Sound markets are getting their aup
ply from Taklma and Ban Francisco Is using
Salinas and Rivera It will be a month yet
before the shipping movement fully sta;s
A good California demand la expected this
Winter.

Wall Street Looks for Harri
. man Financial Plan.
STOCK TRADING LIGHT
Cnlon and Southern Pacific and
Reading Are Aggressively Ad
vancedOutlook for the Money
Market Bonds- Irregular.
NEW TORK. Sept. 14. While not pre
cisely apathetic, today's stock market lost
much in animation compared with last week's
rats of activity. The dullness of trading
through much of the session waa due to a
waiting attitude, rather than to Indifference.
The waiting was on an expected announcement
of financial readjustment of the Harrlman
Pacifies primarily. There were definite Inti
mations that some such announcement was to
come shortly and speculative surmise waa
alive as to Its nature with no authentic In
formation to guide It. A segregation of Union
Pacific treasury aaseta and their distribution
in the form of shares In a holding company
was a form of the surmise heard much of.
News that E. H. HarrinAn had not returned
to his office from his country home left the
situation In suspense. A large proportion of
all the dealings waa in the two Harrlman
Pacific stocks and Reading. These three
stocks were lifted aggressively at the open
ing and at various times thereafter. The open
advance triage outside buyers, who had placed
orders with commission house over Sunday,
pay high prices.
The quiter speculation waa due partly, no
doubt, to the recognition that conditions have
ceased to work towards Increasing supplies In
the money market and havs turned In the di
rection of depletion. Foreign exchange showed
a hardening tendency again and discussion was
revived of probable gold exports. The call
money rate here hovered around 2 per cent and
the prolonged period of 1 per cent call money
was regarded as evidently ended. Time
money rates were marked higher .V
Railroad traffic officials reported some Im
provement In the tonnage movement. The
August gross earnings reported by the Great
Northern, however, showed a decrease of 81.
883.970, or 24 per cent, compared with Au
gust of last year, the comparing showing but
slight Improvement, over that for July.
The special forecast of the weather bureau
that the week would see abundant rains in
the drought-stricken districts did not preclude
an advance In the grain market.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $2,558,000. United Statea bonds were
unchanged on call.
